Reincarnated as a Mosquito, the School Beauty I Sucked to Tears is a Reborn Empress

So, you think that’s all there is to this harvest?

No, no, no! There’s more!

Everything up to now was just the prelude. The main event is next!

Besides the Qi Blood and Evolution Points, the most precious thing I absorbed from the Mosquito Daoist this time was the Bloodline Power of his ”Six-winged Black Mosquito” form!

This was the real reason the system proactively sent a notification earlier!

Chu Sheng opened the final system notification.

[Ding! Current ”Six-winged Black Mosquito” Bloodline Power collection progress: 1%. A Bloodline fusion evolution can be initiated.]

[Do you wish to proceed now?]

Chu Sheng didn’t answer right away. Instead, he asked inwardly:

’What is a Bloodline fusion evolution?’

[Bloodline Fusion Evolution: When the Host absorbs an extremely High-Level Bloodline Power and meets a certain progress threshold, a Bloodline evolution can be triggered. After a Bloodline evolution, you can obtain some of the abilities of that Bloodline Power!]

[The Mosquito Daoist’s Bloodline Power is a type of extremely High-Level Bloodline. Current absorption progress is 1%. One evolution can be performed. Do you wish to proceed now?]

’Oh, I get it!’

’In other words, from now on, as long as I encounter Fierce Beasts on the same level as the Mosquito Daoist, I can absorb their Bloodline Power for my own Bloodline evolution while I’m sucking their blood.’

’This avatar of the Mosquito Daoist was just one of hundreds of millions, yet I managed to absorb 1% of his Bloodline Power. That’s already incredible!’

’Nice, very nice! Another way to grow stronger! It’s just... Fierce Beasts with extremely High-Level Bloodline Power won’t be easy to find!’

’System, how long will this Bloodline evolution take?’

[The amount of Bloodline Power absorbed this time is small, so the Bloodline evolution will only take... about ten minutes.]

’Ten minutes... Inside this Divine Hall, that’s ten years of Lifespan.’

The mutual absorption process with the Mosquito Daoist’s avatar just now had lasted nearly an hour, costing Chu Sheng about sixty years of his Lifespan.

[Current Lifespan: 1,936 years.]

His Lifespan was still plentiful, so Chu Sheng wasn’t worried. His gaze shifted to the air in the middle of the Inner Hall.

Sure enough, as the Power of Space-Time grew denser, the gateway to the third floor began to slowly coalesce, taking shape once more.

’But... it looks like it still needs a little more time.’

’Chu Sheng was determined to enter the third floor!’

’In that case, I’ll wait a bit and go through with the Bloodline evolution. Hmm... The Little Empress is probably getting anxious waiting outside, but there’s nothing I can do about it.’

Thinking of this, Chu Sheng decisively commanded the system:

’Start the Bloodline evolution now!’

[Ding! ”Six-winged Black Mosquito” Bloodline Power 1%, initiating Bloodline evolution. Estimated time: Ten minutes. Host, please remain stationary.]

The moment the voice faded, Chu Sheng felt something was wrong.

His body automatically switched to its Reincarnation Saint Mosquito form—the form of a more-than-one-meter-long, black-and-gold mosquito!

This caused the majority of his body to break free from the lamp oil.

Immediately after, a searing current of heat suddenly exploded from the deepest part of his body! It then rapidly spread through every meridian and into all his flesh and blood.

Unlike a full evolution, during a Bloodline fusion evolution, Chu Sheng was completely conscious!

A wave of excruciating pain suddenly shot through his entire body!

”HOLY SHIT—”

Pain!

It wasn’t a sharp, tearing agony, but more like countless fine needles jabbing inside his blood vessels. It was itchy, numbing, and accompanied by an indescribable searing heat.

It felt as if his blood had been brought to a boil!

The boiling blood soon began to rampage through his body like a surging beast tide.

A vast Qi Blood Power started from his heart and began to circulate, coursing through his body! With each cycle, it carried a hotter, denser power!

AHHHH!

At the same time, Chu Sheng’s external appearance also began to change!

A splash of inky black appeared on his back! Then, like a living thing, this inkiness slowly extended, crawling onto his wings.

His wings seemed to be traced by an invisible brush, as esoteric patterns appeared one after another!

The patterns resembled some kind of ancient runes—crooked and winding, carrying an indescribable aura of malevolence and dominance. With every new line that appeared, his wings grew heavier, as if being filled with more power.

’Goddamn, this hurts!’

Chu Sheng was twitching from the pain, yet he felt a strange sense of satisfaction—he could feel a new, domineering power emerging within him!

Time passed, second by second.

Finally, ten minutes passed, and the system’s voice rang out!

[Ding! Bloodline fusion evolution complete!]

Due to his increased size, only a small part of Chu Sheng’s body was now submerged in the oil of the Candle of Time... The moment the evolution finished, he forcefully flapped his wings!

The black patterns on his wings suddenly lit up! Chu Sheng actually broke free from the lamp oil’s restraint and flew out.

He flew a quick lap around the Inner Hall. Even with the Power of Time present, his Speed was significantly faster than before!

The Speed of a Six-winged Black Mosquito was said to be second only to the legendary Kunpeng, and Chu Sheng had now gained a portion of the Six-winged Black Mosquito’s world-class swiftness!

But there was more! This was only a physical evolution.

Chu Sheng opened the system panel to check the gains from this evolution.

[Host: Chu Sheng]

[Race: Reincarnation Saint Mosquito (Fused with 1% Six-winged Black Mosquito Bloodline)]

[Lifespan: 2,026 years]

His Race was still Reincarnation Saint Mosquito. The evolution process consumed ten years of Lifespan, yet his total Lifespan had increased instead of decreased. This meant... the Bloodline evolution had added one hundred years to his Lifespan.

Also, the system had said that a Bloodline fusion evolution had a chance to grant one of the target’s abilities.

Chu Sheng immediately started searching his Skills panel.

’There it is!’

On the last row of the No Level Skills section, a brand new skill had appeared: [Blood Shadow Clone].

’Hm? Another clone skill?’

[Blood Shadow Clone]: The Mosquito Daoist’s clone ability. The Mosquito Daoist can create hundreds of millions of clones. As long as the clones are not destroyed, the Mosquito Daoist cannot be destroyed.

Based on the Host’s current Bloodline fusion progress, only one Blood Shadow Clone can be summoned. The clone’s strength is one percent of the Host’s, and it possesses the same Lifespan as the Host. As long as the clone is not destroyed, the Host cannot be destroyed.

The Blood Shadow Clone ability can be upgraded as the Host’s Six-winged Black Mosquito Bloodline fusion progresses.

”BZZZ (Oho? Not bad.)”

Although the clone’s strength was nothing special, the key point was that ’as long as the clone survives, the host cannot die,’ and the clone’s existence wasn’t time-limited!

This gave the skill enormous strategic potential!

Chu Sheng was quite satisfied. The loot he’d managed to fleece from this Mosquito Daoist was more than impressive!

It was at this moment.

High in the air of the Inner Hall, the gateway of space-time finally finished forming.

Chu Sheng’s gaze sharpened. Without hesitation, he charged straight in!

Of course, in the instant he left, he didn’t forget to snatch the Candle of Time from the Divine Platform and store it in his Lifebound Space... Heh heh.
